Hi George,

The limit is set by the ELT file. It is another of the annoying things about 
embosser selection in 10.5 that you cannot overide the default maximums. I have 
modified the ELT file for Christine.

  Hi Christine,

  You can only get 29 lines on a 12 inch deep page single-sided, but not when 
embossing double-sided.  The offset of the second side just won't fit the page.

  However, you may be able "fiddle" it, by reducing the line spacing on the 
Index itself via the "Braille, Line Spacing" menu.  I believe the default is 
10, so try reducing it down one level.

  George.

  Subject: [duxuser] Page length in DBT


  I am using an Index Everest embosser model 3.  I am also using DBT10.5.

  I wish to produce a page of braille which must be 29 lines deep.  I am using 
12-inch paper.  

  I cannot get DBT to accept more than 28 lines to a page.  I have also tried 
setting my embosser page length to greater than 12-inch (300mm) but still I 
cannot get the 29 lines.  

  I have tried changing the global menu embosser settings but they will not 
hold and keep reverting back to the 28 lines.   

  I have also tried by causing a formfeed from the embosser on longer than 
12-inch paper but to no avail.  

  I understand that I must have 29 lines showing in the document menu and 
atleast 29 lines showing in the global menu.

  Any help to solve my problem is much needed and will be greatfully 
appreciated 

  Kind regards
